$5.95



Description:

There are a few singers who hold a truly special place in the hearts of opera lovers, and Christa Ludwig was one of them. Possessing a voice of exquisite beauty and astonishing versatility, she sang across an extraordinary range of repertoire and vocal fachs. Yet it was her interpretive intelligence—her ability to communicate the emotional truth of every phrase—that often eclipsed even the sheer loveliness of her sound.

Ludwig could command the vast forces of a Wagner opera as convincingly as she could captivate an audience in intimate recital. Her performances were marked by honesty, emotional depth, and unwavering musicality. This compilation is a rich testament to her gifts, featuring excerpts from Die Fledermaus, Orfeo ed Euridice, Così fan tutte, Il Trovatore, Luisa Miller, Aida, Don Carlo, Khovanshchina, Tannhäuser, Lohengrin, Die Walküre, Tristan und Isolde, Wozzeck, Der Rosenkavalier, and Ariadne auf Naxos.
